Dear all:

The LDO has enough phase margin when no load or light or heavy load.

But if I use a pulse current such as

Iout vout 0 pulse( 0 2 800u 1n 1n 100u 200u)
the circuit will ring

And if
Iout vout 0 pulse( 10m 2 800u 1n 1n 100u 200u)
the circuit will be fine.

Why? setting Iout as a zero current when transient simulation is not resonable ?

Thanks for your answer.
 

The LDO under Iout=0 is unstable. Sometimes phase margin is not trustable.
